About the book

Jane Austen's Persuasion follows Anne Elliot, who eight years earlier was persuaded to end her engagement to naval officer Frederick Wentworth because he lacked fortune and social standing. When Wentworth returns as a successful captain, Anne is forced to confront both her past decision and her continuing feelings for him. More reflective and emotionally mature than many of Austen's earlier novels, Persuasion explores regret, constancy, second chances and the possibility of recovering lost happiness.
